OK it's time to get this going :D
These days are set up for members that need help getting things done to their cars at 1/2 the cost that it would be if you took it to a mechanic.
Dates and location will be posted up at a later date as this is still being worked out.

So at this time what I am looking for is a list of names that are interested and what you need done.
Oh and one thing we will not be doing is angle eyes no ifs or butts!

On the day you will need to bring:-
parts that you want changed/fixed
oils and plugs and things like that if in need of a service
and the normal 6 pack- box beer or bourbon :twisted: this comes down to the job that is needed to be done.

So lets start the list :D

Fkn hell... Im gonna have a sore back after this one 8O

For this much mechanical stuff, we'll need to do it at my place, which is fine I'd already put my hand up for that, as we'll need the compressor & air tools.
